I think I may actually have done it. 
I think I may have actually found two completely distinct products, serving entirely different markets, whose design, creation, marketing, price, and appeal, among other attributes, are so similar that there may be economies of scale in the production of each by the same vendor.
What are these two products you ask...?
Designer ligatures and designer ladies shoes. 
A quick story. Despite clearing my internet browser it's not uncommon for ads for ladies shoes to appear among my clarinet bboard threads: a quintessentially perfectly wrong example of target marketing to this 60+ year old man who should probably wash the sneakers he's worn for the last month.
Now, I don't hold it against board management that this is the case. They've got to generate revenue to keep the lights on from somewhere.
But at some point, I think by accident I clicked one such ad and found the featured product selling for $650; my Costco sneakers: I think about $30.
As has been my tendency lately I asked A.I. to explain.
compare the markets for designer ladies shoes and designer clarinet ligatures.
